A MASTER STROKE Four “38” $985 ® • EVERY Nineteen Fifteen Auburn sold—before the season was well started! That is the splendid tribute paid by a discriminating public, demonstrating conclusively the Auburn Motor Car was the buy of the year. Auburn Cars always have and always will represent the mux i mum of quality, durability, dependability, service, comfort and pleasure at the minimum of price, it is our purpose to give Auburn buyers “The Most for the Money,” and how well we succeed is shown by our selling our output so early in the season. We are mighty proud of our past successes and jealous of the enviable reputation of Auburn cars, so it is with pardonable pride we announce that our Series R Models far eclipse all previous efforts —they arc our crowning triumphs. The quality of the material used is of the same high standard, and we have only adopted those features exhaustive tests and the experience of our engineers showed worthy. The artistic lines, rare beauty of finish, luxurious upholstering, charming individuality, unusually roomy driver’s seat, completeness of equipment, low center of gravity and consequent ability to cling to the road, and wonderously easy riding qualities will insure an enthusiastic reception. Backed by our fifteen years of success as builders of motor cars, constant study, research, experimenting, and with rare foresight anticipating the demand for Auburn Cars, we designed, built and vigorously tested our Series R Models for the floodtide, so we arc prepared to deliver these models NOH'. The initial demand for them has already passed our most sanguine expectations and orders w ill only be accepted for as many cars as we can produce consistent with Auburn ideals. Therefore, you will see the wisdom of reserving your car and enjoying the pleasure of driving one of these magnificent models in advance of your friends and associates. The Auburn embodies every sound and tested principle of automobile construction and represents the cumulative experience of our engineers. You gel in the Auburn all the comforts and conveniences of a big car without the latter’s cost, and the silence, power, endurance and flexibility usually thought only possible in expensive cars. You cannot realize when you see the car how we can give you so much for so little and that ‘so much’ possesses all the merit and quality of which we are so justly proud. As an Auburn prospect you are appointed sole Judge and Jury. Study the superb design, the attractive and convenient arrangement of the cowl equipment, the powerful motors, the velvet riding cantliver springs, vacuum gasoline tank, and all the details so essential to your court oil, and last but not least, the honorable business history and financial responsibility of this company. Weigh impartially these facts and your decision will be quickly reached. The new Auburn is so superior and is such an unusually good buy, your purchase will prove a genuine investment. You won’t be disappointed if you buy an Auburn at once, though you may be later if you don’t do so, because of your inability to get one. Belter decide while these points are fresh in your mind and place your order immediately. ORDER YOUR CAR NOW T. J. DURKIN, Distributor. Sales Rooms in “Noah Ark” Building North 2nd. St. Decatur, Ind.
